Volunteering

Volunteers

Volunteers are the lifeblood of grassroot and mass participation sport; as a volunteer in Surrey you'll play a key part in the staging of an event in your area. By being part of a team that really makes things happen, you'll be adding to others' enjoyment and gaining practical experience that future employers will value.

"To people who are thinking about volunteering I would say go for it! It's such a great thing to do and the feeling you get from it is amazing! I made some great friends and I would recommend volunteering to anyone."Nikki

We are currently recruiting volunteers for the fantastic Specsavers Surrey Youth Games 2019- it's a great event to get you started in volunteering if you've never given it a go before.

What you should expect as a volunteer

When you start volunteering you should be given certain information about the opportunity as well as details of certain policies and procedures that are in place to support you as a volunteer.

A simple volunteering checklist is available for you to download - use it as a reminder of what your expectations should be as a volunteer and to check if they are supporting you correctly. Download the volunteer checklist.

Time commitment

• The event you're working on will govern how much time you'll spend, but there is often some flexibility around the total hours you'll need to set aside.
